Creamy Vanilla Rice Pudding Recipe Recipe For Banana

JAPANESE BANANA RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Slice 1/2 of 1 banana and sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar over it.
• Chop the remaining bananas and place in a skillet over medium heat; stir and mash until bananas become heated through, are slightly browned, and hold together in 1 ball, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Mix milk, rice, egg yolks, 3 tablespoons sugar, butter, and salt together in a saucepan over low heat until slightly thickened and steamy, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in mashed bananas until well blended and heated through. Remove from heat and refrigerate rice pudding until slightly cooled, at least 15 minutes.
• Stir whipped cream into rice pudding until well blended.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir sugared banana slices until sugar has melted and caramelized, 2 to 4 minutes. Spoon over rice pudding.

CREAMY RICE PUDDING WITH CARAMELIZED BANANAS

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup milk, cream, vanilla bean, 6 tablespoons sugar, a pinch of salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat, and let steep, covered, for 30 minutes.
• Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil; add rice, and blanch for 1 to 2 minutes. Drain, and set aside. Remove vanilla bean and cinnamon stick from milk mixture. Scrape seeds from bean, and stir them back into the mixture; discard bean and cinnamon. Stir in blanched rice; cook, covered, over low heat, stirring occasionally, until liquid is mostly absorbed, about 1 hour.
• In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolks and remaining 2 cups milk. Add to rice mixture, stirring well. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Do not allow to boil. Add 1 tablespoon butter, and stir until melted. Remove pudding from heat, transfer to a bowl, and let cool slightly. Chill in refrigerator, covered, 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until cold. Pudding will keep, refrigerated, for up to 3 days.
• When ready to serve, cut bananas into 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat in a heavy skillet. Stir in remaining 3/4 cup sugar and lemon juice, and cook, carefully swirling pan until a golden caramel forms. Add bananas, and cook, stirring occasionally, just until they soften and are coated with caramel, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer pudding to individual dishes, top with hot bananas, and serve immediately.

CREAMY VANILLA RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine milk, rice, sugar, vanilla caviar and pod, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring gently.
• Cover pot, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes. Uncover pot and continue to cook, stirring often, until rice is very tender and pudding has thickened slightly, about 15 minutes more. Remove pot from heat and let pudding cool for 5 minutes; fish out the vanilla bean pod before transferring to a heatproof bowl.
• refrigerate until cold and thick, at least 4 hours or as long as overnight.
• Tip: may add 2 large egg yolks and a sot of dark rum during the last 5 minutes of cooking for a more grownup twist.
• Note: this recipe calls for medium grain white rice (not long- or short-grain rice), which lends the perfect amount of starch, creaminess, and texture to the pudding.
• Cooking time is cooling time.
